How do I represent this question in OWL to answer certain competency questions such as: What is the Subject of this question? What is the unknown part of the question we are trying to answer?

|Title=Modeling Questions<br />
|Description=This problem came up in the context of the W3C Decision Incubator activity, however, it is more general than the decision-making domain. It is about how to formally represent questions in OWL. For instance, if I ask a question like &quot;Where did this emergency occur?&quot; I would simply represent it as a string. However, the question contains a lot of information, so in some cases one might want to represent it formally, and possibly reason on the question itself. For instance, we may want to derive that the answer should be of type &quot;location&quot; from the fact that the question uses the keyword &quot;where&quot;.<br />
<br />
We have identified two main aspects of this modeling issue:<br />
# How can we refer to the detailed description of the question?<br />
# How can we model the semantics of the question itself?<br />
<br />
